- the charging apparatus includes a power factor correction converter for generating a DC voltage by correcting the power factor of input AC power and a DC-DC converter for converting the magnitude of the output voltage of the power factor correction converter into the magnitude of a voltage required for battery charging.
- a Y-capacitor is provided at input and output terminals of the vehicle-mounted-type charging apparatus to remove noise components.
- the Y-capacitor provided at the output terminal is usually made to have a larger capacitance than that of the Y-capacitor provided at the input terminal.
